This is why creationists like to remain ignorant. Too much knowledge would eventually accrue which contradicts their biblical literalist theology. So I suppose you won't read this article which lists 31 locations where the complete geologic column can be found and goes into great detail on the North Dakota location.
As to your silly scenario about walking and flying creatures moving to higher ground, please explain why mangroves which are endemic to low-lying and coastal areas are not found in the fossil record until relatively late. They are preceded in the fossil record for hundreds of millions of years by ferns and gymnosperms. Surely the mangroves didn't run away from the flood faster than ferns.
